Direct answer
Subscription boxes and gift curators need products that fit their box, budget and theme, and that arrive on time in large, consistent quantities. A full Mahjong set is often too large and heavy for a standard box, so accessories and smaller items usually work better: card holders, dice sets, chips, tile-themed items, small pouches or a mini set. Agree on dimensions, weight, quantity, packaging and delivery date before production.
